Small commercial, on a schedule rather than in a crisis
Suites, clinics, studios, shops and light industrial units across the south metro — planned service with a record per unit, and equipment that gets looked at before August.
What we cover
The work, on commercial premises
- Planned maintenanceOnce or twice a year depending on the equipment and how hard the space works it, written up against each unit.
- Rooftop packaged unitsThe workhorse of small commercial space here. Coils, filters, belts, economisers, drains and controls.
- Splits and ductlessServer rooms, treatment rooms, and the suites where every room needs its own control.
- Evaporative and hybridWarehouses and workshops where evaporative cooling still makes sense for most of the season.
- Extract and make-up airKitchens, salons and workshops that take air out without a deliberate route for it to come back.
- Controls and schedulesRunning the plant during the hours you are open. This resolves more complaints than any repair.
Economisers
The part of a rooftop unit nobody checks
Most packaged units here have an economiser — a set of dampers that brings in outside air when it is cooler than the air inside. In this climate that is free cooling for a large part of the year, and it works only if the dampers and the sensors still do.
They fail quietly. A stuck damper does not make a noise or throw a fault; it just costs you money in one direction or makes the building hard to hold in the other.
Who calls us
The premises we know best
- Clinics and treatment roomsRooms that need their own temperature and their own air, on the clinic's hours rather than the building's.
- Studios and salonsHigh occupancy in small volumes, with extract that fights the front door.
- Professional suitesOne system, three tenants, and no agreement about the setpoint.
- Shops and trade countersA door open to the weather on equipment sized for a sealed building.
- Light industrial and warehousingUnit heaters, destratification, evaporative cooling and an office at the front on something else entirely.
